Grant District Council is proud to celebrate its volunteers at its annual morning tea during this year’s National Volunteer Week from May 20-26.
The Australia wide celebration provides an opportunity for likeminded people to connect and to highlight the positive impact volunteers have on local communities.
This year, the theme of the week is Something for Everyone showcasing the diverse talents each volunteer brings to their local community.
Mayor Kylie Boston expressed how grateful she was for the work of local volunteers.
“Our volunteers are truly the unsung heroes who selflessly dedicate their time, energy, and skills to worthwhile causes.
Their impact reverberates through our whole community,” Mayor Boston said.
“I have had the privilege of working alongside some of those dedicated individuals in our community.
Working behind the scenes with these people has amplified how lucky we are to have such committed groups of fabulous volunteers who work tirelessly to better our community.”
The council will host its annual Volunteers Morning Tea on May 22.
